As the default libmysqlclient for Debian Sarge libmysqlclient12 (from 4.0)
were choosen by the Release Team in order to have all packages depend
on the same version (and not e.g. libdbd-mysql-perl on 14 and libxyz-perl
to libmysqlclient12 which would give problems). So I cannot change that.
Your problem is likely to go away if you add "old-passwords" to
/etc/mysql/my.cnf (check with mysqld --verbose --help) as it's the case
in the default my.cnf that ships with the package. Else you will likely
enounter similar problems with all other Debian packages that use MySQL.
